Adjust bait depth for stillwater trout
incl. VAT, excl.
It is designed for trout fishing on stocked lakes and other stillwaters with artificial or natural bait. This version has 200 cm of 0.25 mm line and a #8 hook. Perch are also a possible target with a suitable bait, but trout fishing is its primary use.
Change the amount of water in the bubble to adjust its casting weight without adding lead weights. Move the integrated pilot floats to set the bait depth. You can therefore adapt the cast and explore different water layers with the same rig.
The rig comes assembled on a foam winder. Unwind it, tie it to your main line and bait the hook rather than building the system yourself. After fishing, wind it back onto the supplied board for organised storage and reuse.
For this rig with 0.25 mm line, the supplier suggests a main line of 0.25–0.30 mm. Choose within that range according to your reel and the expected demands of playing fish at the trout lake.
The supplier states that it can also be used for smaller coastal fish in saltwater, although its primary purpose is trout fishing on freshwater lakes. Rinse the components thoroughly with fresh water after saltwater use.

The Balzer Wasserkugel-System is a ready-made bubble-float rig for trout fishing on stocked lakes and other stillwaters. Varying the water inside the bubble adjusts its casting weight, while integrated pilot floats set the bait depth. It arrives assembled on a foam winder, so you can prepare it without building the rig yourself.
Add or remove water to change the bubble's weight and adapt it to the casting distance without adding lead weights. Move the pilot floats along the rig to adjust the fishing depth and explore different layers of water. The 200 cm rig gives the bait space away from the bubble and allows a natural fall.
Assembled by Balzer trout specialist Olaf “Olli” Kaufmann, the system is intended for artificial or natural bait at the trout lake. It is suitable for beginners and experienced trout anglers alike. Perch are also a possible target with an appropriate bait, although trout remain its main purpose.
This version combines a 200 cm rig, 0.25 mm line and a #8 hook. Unwind it from the board, tie it to your main line and bait the hook. The supplier suggests a main line in the 0.25–0.30 mm range, with the choice depending on your reel and the fish you expect to play.
After fishing, wind the reusable rig back onto the supplied foam board to keep it organised for the next outing. The supplier also states that it can be used in saltwater for smaller coastal fish, but its primary use is freshwater trout fishing. Rinse the components thoroughly with fresh water after saltwater use.
